This week's podcast is a recording of a Safety Roundtable event on tackling safety professionals' biggest frustrations. Safety is a rewarding career, but it's not without its frustrations…

 

Christian explores the top five frustrations that he typically hears about and then, with the help of the roundtable attendees, deep dives into the frustration of a lack of buy-in from colleagues.

 

Key discussion points:

·        The challenges safety professionals face in getting colleagues to take safety seriously and follow established policies and procedures

·        Importance of simplicity

·        Strategies for overcoming frustrations

·        Collaboration and ownership

·        Radical empathy: understand the drivers and motivators of employees to better communicate and influence them to work safely and efficiently

·        Empower workers

·        Focus on relationships and trust

 

As well as the frustrations, we discuss success stories and strategies to overcome them.
